    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Maiden voyage this weekend. It was absolutely wonderful having that much room, and no major issues to boot. A few minor niggles to sort out.

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Every other year, evens or odds based on vehicle year. Bus is an 03, so 2019 is the next time it'll be due. Did a full fluids check last night too after an oil change, everything looks good to go for summer travel. The seats that are coming out are out, if anyone local needs any I have a...

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Back at it. Batteries and chargers installed last weekend, drove it this week, passed emissions just fine. Tester guy didn't think it sounded right. Meh. Youtube channel with a couple videos for anyone interested: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHJVznIdQnf0pFTJWLDkIMw

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Slow going. Cold and snowy. Bwa bwa. Does anyone know how to identify the original engine/trans to the chassis? Trying to determine if it's been changed out over the last many miles.

    Coleman Addiction.....for pesants. ha ha ha!

    Anyone in the Boise area want a stove? I bought way too many at a local auction site, with the intention of restoring some and using some for parts. Then I bought a bus (see one of my other threads) and it would gain me some ground with the wife if I got rid of a few stoves. Free to good ExPo...

    Batteries bought, Interstate Mega Tron Plus for both the under hood and frame rail. Still deciding on what to do about the current lift battery, which will likely be replaced with a deep cycle for 12V stuff. Charger should be on the way next week.

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    The Genius charger is nice because it's a solo 110V in for the 3 outputs. I think I'm going to keep that isolated up front. They make a nice pass through that I have on my E250, I'll probably add one towards the rear and put the junction box there. Not sure I'll want to charge batteries at...

    Noco Genius seems to be a favorite. Looks like I'll pick up their 3 battery 10A version and put a plug in the bumper or something. Do you guys recommend the block heater use just prior to starting or more frequently?

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Saw both of those, I need to see what size the door is. Seats are low on the list for now, but those are a solid enough deal. What do you guys like for a charger? I've got a decent one that I picked up at Sams a few years back, seems to work well enough but it's not as much a maintainer as a...

    Costco sells Interstates (I think), but they're 800CCA, not 850. Enough? Or go bigger?

    Thanks for the advice, looks like Advance sells them. I'll give them a look.

    Why I'm not allowed to browse local auction sites anymore (I bought a shuttle bus)

    Batteries appear to be deadsville. I'll hopefully confirm this week, though my charger is telling me they have internal shorts. Anyone have good, cheap group 65 recommendations?

    4x4 and 6x6 Trucks at auction in Florida. Lots of them.

    Bummer that none have a box on them.

    It's insured. Personal use commercial vehicle policy. I will be toeing the line of an RV conversion, need to keep the plumbing and commode from being considered "permanent" to avoid a trickier policy. I think I can do it.
